Bro, all you gotta do is die and all your credit card debit is gone. If you just keep paying the bills, then the debt stays the same until you miss a bill, and then it gets worse. If you die then the debt goes away. Why keep perpetuating the cycle? Dying is the only way to get rid of debt.

That's what your post sounds like

Immediate collapse. No one would take the deportees long term. There would be a huge swell in support for the deported people, but very rapidly other countries would shut their borders. The only way to realistically deport that many people is to get them to self deport by intimidating them.

I'm not so sure this question is hypothetical anymore.

"Rollable" solar panels are still pretty stiff. You would need a beefier mechanism to handle the extra forces required. They also have a pretty significant "minimum turn radius" so they would need an entirely new design for their mechanism to work without damaging the panels.

They do make personal solar array with a surface area comparable to your umbrella idea, but those would take days to charge a cellphone, so the charge you get walking around for a few hours is negligible.

It's a cool idea, and would be a fun project to build and show off, but it's not going to be marketable or practical without a whole lot of development in solar, battery and umbrella tech.

Elections are a compromise. Democracy by nature is compromise. FPTP sucks, but it's the system we had, so you either have to work with it, or burn shit, and not nearly enough nonvoters or 3rd party voters are out here burning enough shit to convince me that they are actually against the system. So in reality they were just naive idealists who couldn't stomach voting for the best viable candidate, and saddled the rest of us with that orange shit-stain instead.

2024 wasnt about voting for Harris. It was about voting against Trump. If you didn't vote for Harris, then you didn't vote against trump.

Hell yeah. Nitpick away. Push for actual left politicians. Go canvas for a candidate who better meets your ideals. Don't forget to vote in primaries and local elections.

Also don't forget that we need to actually make it to having elections for the next 4 years to even start trying to turn this ship around.

This is like the exact case that bone conducting headphones are for. You can hear everything, and no one has to hear your music.

I also have some earbuds that have a passthrough mode, but I wouldn't trust them to stay in while running or biking.

Ads in the 90's and 00's would just layer toolbars onto your browser. Is still have a a nervous twitch when I see a thick toolbars or animated cursors.

Goodput vs shitstream.

Ah, see, my religion infinite years old, but has only recently been revealed to me and me alone. It's actually all the other religions that are too young in comparison. Much like the children the church is throwing under the bus to protect career pedophiles.

How much mental health care would have fixed Epstein?

Also, mandating that religious orgs report it is not the same as punishing people for uncontrolled urges. Once the person is reported, they can get help. If it's not reported, they then will keep abusing children until the are caught by someone else.

Freedom of religion is not freedom to protect pedophiles.

"My religion says I don't have to stop for red lights".

Hwaaach ptooo

Ah ha ha ha hahah haaaa

It has become normalized for most of the population to carry some form of debt.

Not just normalized, Required. Credit scores aren't based on how likely you are to pay off a loan, but on how likely you are to make the creditor money. If you take out loans and pay them off ahead of schedule, it will fuck with your credit. If you close an old credit card after you pay it off, it will fuck up your credit.

Want a house? You better have 400k cash laying around, or have been paying interest on cards and loans for 10 years to establish a good credit score. Want a decent apartment? They check your credit score too! Did I mention that every single job I've applied for has run a credit check on me?

FYI, Equifax leaked literally everyone's personal info after collecting it and selling it without consent. They still operate as one of the major credit score providers.

Yeah, basically a payday loan you can do from your phone. I'm sure this won't crash the economy.

"Slowly"

It's already open to others, and Elon said a few months ago that they were axing the entire department that manages the network.

Not sure if any of that has changed in the last few months though.

Nah. There's plenty of shit people on this planet, and I have no shame in wishing that most of them weren't.

You can get a DA if your actions lead to your children not reproducing, but generally DAs are not awarded if you kill someone else.

So if his kids die in a Russian trench before reproducing, he would be eligible for a DA. A this time I'd give him a Honorable Mention at most.

Edit : Their sons from different marriages opted to stay behind in the US. This would be a HM at best.
